AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The subtilase variants exhibit improved stability and wash performance, retaining enzymatic activity under varying conditions and maintaining or enhancing stain removal efficiency, thus addressing the limitations of existing proteases.

Problems solved by technology

The washing conditions such as temperature and pH changes over time and many stains are still difficult to completely remove under conventional washing conditions.
Further, in wash conditions can result in inactivation of the enzymes (due to e.g. pH, temperature or chelation instability) resulting in loss of wash performance during the wash cycle.

on and Expression of Variants

[1036]The following summarizes the mutation and introduction of an expression cassette into Bacillus subtilis. All DNA manipulations were done by PCR (e.g. Sambrook et al.; Molecular Cloning; Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press) and can be repeated by everybody skilled in the art.

[1037]Recombinant B. subtilis constructs encoding subtilase variants were used to inoculate shakeflasks containing a rich media (e.g. 100 g / L Sucrose (Danisco cat. no. 109-0429), 40 g / L crust soy (soy bean flour), 10 g / L Na2HPO4.12H2O (Merck cat. no. 6579), 0.1 ml / L replace-Dowfax63N10 (Dow). Cultivation typically takes 4 days at 30° C. shaking with 220 rpm.

ion of Variants

[1038]The culture broth was centrifuged (26000×g, 20 min) and the supernatant was carefully decanted from the precipitate. The supernatant was filtered through a Nalgene 0.2 μm filtration unit in order to remove the rest of the Bacillus host cells. pH in the 0.2 μm filtrate was adjusted to pH 8 with 3M Tris base and the pH adjusted filtrate was applied to a MEP Hypercel column (from Pall corporation) equilibrated in 20 mM Tris / HCl, 1 mM CaCl2, pH 8.0. After washing the column with the equilibration buffer, the column was step-eluted with 20 mM CH3COOH / NaOH, 1 mM CaCl2, pH 4.5. Fractions from the column were analysed for protease activity (using the Suc-AAPF-pNA assay at pH 9) and peak-fractions were pooled. The pH of the pool from the MEP Hypercel column was adjusted to pH 6 with 20% (v / v) CH3COOH or 3M Tris base and the pH adjusted pool was diluted with deionized water to the same conductivity as 20 mM MES / NaOH, 2 mM CaCl2, pH 6.0. The diluted pool was applied to a S...

ed Storage Stability Assay

[1039]Storage stability of protease variants in liquid detergent was evaluated using an accelerated assay with incubation at elevated temperatures for up to 24 hours.

[1040]All purified protease samples were diluted to concentrations of 0.2 and 0.1 mg / ml based on absorbance at 280 nm and theoretical extinction coefficient using 0.01% Triton X-100. For each variant 2 wells with high protease concentration and 2 wells with low concentration were included. As reference SEQ ID NO 3 was included on each microtiter plate. 30 μl protease sample was mixed with 270 μl detergent (Model 0 or CNS EDTA pH9) in the well of a microtiter plate (Nunc U96 PP 0.5 ml) using a magnetic bar (on Zephyr pipetting station (Caliper LifeSciences) for 30 min). 20 μl of this mixture was then transferred to another microtiter plate (Nunc U96 PP 0.5 ml with added magnetic bars) and mixed with 150 μl 100 mM Tris pH 8.6 (at least 5 min on Zephyr). 30 μl of this dilution was transferred to a...

Abstract

The present invention relates to novel subtilase variants exhibiting increased stability and preferably on par or improved wash performance. The variants of the invention are suitable for use in e.g. cleaning or detergent compositions, such as laundry detergent compositions and dish wash compositions, including automatic dish wash compositions. The present invention also relates to isolated DNA sequences encoding the variants, expression vectors, host cells, and methods for producing and using the variants of the invention.
